Metal glasses: softer shades + combinations

Colour forecast: delicate tones of rose, rose gold, light silvery or gold finishes, copper effects and combination colours

The palette of colours for metal frames broadens for the coming season – with subtle, jewellery-like hues with a natural and precious quality, to suit all complexions, tastes and moods. Colours that are coming further into play in the eyewear collection are symbolic and representative of wellbeing such as copper and silver – both with antimicrobial properties – and for styles in titanium and stainless steel, an aesthetic elegance representing luxury, timelessness, natural refinement and quality. Above: model 104 in Clear Rose in the Vaerk collection from Denmark. This is a lightweight frame with a transparent acetate front combined with stainless steel temples for flexibility and hypoallergenic qualities. Stainless steel is timeless, minimal and refined in appearance. www.vaerkcopenhagen.com
